Patent attributes
A system includes a multi-core shared memory controller (MSMC). The MSMC includes a snoop filter bank, a cache tag bank, and a memory bank. The cache tag bank is connected to both the snoop filter bank and the memory bank. The MSMC further includes a first coherent slave interface connected to a data path that is connected to the snoop filter bank. The MSMC further includes a second coherent slave interface connected to the data path that is connected to the snoop filter bank. The MSMC further includes an external memory master interface connected to the cache tag bank and the memory bank. The system further includes a first processor package connected to the first coherent slave interface and a second processor package connected to the second coherent slave interface. The system further includes an external memory device connected to the external memory master interface.
